She added: “He was very arrogant, he said he fled South Sudan to North Sudan for his safety with his mum, his 10 siblings, his pregnant wife.
“I think it was all just lies. It makes me angry, because at the time, I was so wrapped up in wanting justice that I couldn’t understand why he was lying about his age, and it just angers me that I felt like he was dictating.”
In recent months, Siobhan has turned her attention to campaigning for Rhiannon’s Law, which proposes the detention of undocumented asylum seekers whilst their claims are processed.
She told GB News: “If the government are going to keep allowing these illegals to come over, they should be stopped, they should be detained, they should be medically checked, ID checked, criminally checked, and not allowed out to wander.
“They should be put in a barracks, not near a school, not near children or women, and if they fail the checks, deported back. They go into HMOs, we don’t know where the HMOs are.
“Hotels are closing down, where are they going? When we said to the Home Office, ‘detain them’, they said, ‘what about their human rights? They’ve got human rights’. What about our human rights? Because as far as I’m concerned, the minute they come onto these shores illegally, they are committing a crime.”
